SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- Central New York will have to face a last bit of rain Saturday before things change and sunny, warm and dry weather are in our forecast for a while.

A bit of scattered rain and possibly a storm can be expected Saturday, but once a high pressure system begins to build in our region it will bring an end to the rain, the National Weather Service said.

Most of the day Saturday should be dry anyway, Time Warner Cable News said. The sun will be out later in the day and temperatures will push toward the high 70s. Dry air will continue to be our fare as we move into Sunday.

Dry and warmer weather will continue for Central New York well into next week.
